GIA Certified Appraiser . . .
About Our Appraiser’s Schedule
Our appraiser allows 20 minutes per item. Therefore,
if someone has six pieces of jewelry for evaluation, then two hours are needed for
that appointment. In addition, the appraiser performs jewelry appraisals onsite,
complete with digital photographs, which are accepted by most insurance companies.
Our appraiser will be onsite October 19, November 16, and December 14, 2011. Please
call or stop by the store to make an appointment.
Should I Bring My Receipts?
Any documentation
that establishes ownership, item identification, maintenance, and even past appraisals
is helpful; however, each item is analyzed on its own merits at the time of the appointment.
